Full textThe current view on plastid gene expression is mainly based on the analysis of a few individual genes, and thus it is lacking in comprehensiveness. Here, a novel differential RNA-seq approach, designed to discriminate between primary and processed transcripts, was used to obtain a deeper insight into the plastid transcription and RNA maturation of mature barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) chloroplasts. Transcription in plastids of higher plants is dependent on two different transcription machineries, a plastid-encoded bacterial-type RNA polymerase (PEP) and a nuclear-encoded phage-type RNA polymerase (NEP), which recognize distinct types of promoters. This study provided a thorough investigation into the distribution of transcription start sites within the plastid genome of green (mature chloroplasts; transcription by both PEP and NEP) and white (PEP-deficient plastids; transcription by NEP) plastids of the barley line albostrians. This analysis led to new insights on polymerase specific gene expression in plastids. Recent studies have suggested that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are common in chloroplasts. However, they did not directly detect ncRNAs generated via transcription, the so far most abundant class of known regulatory ncRNAs in bacteria. Here, dRNA-seq analysis of the transcriptome of barley chloroplasts demonstrated the existence of numerous ncRNA generated via transcription of free-standing genes. Major events in plastid mRNA maturation include 5’ and 3’ processed end formation and intercistronic processing. Recently, a PPR (pentatricopeptide repeat) protein was shown to participate in the generation of several plastid mRNA processed ends by serving as a barrier to exonucleases. This study provided evidence for the global impact of this mechanism on processed termini formation in chloroplasts.

Full textIn this study, plastid gene expression was analyzed focusing on two aspects: the effect of cytokinin on plastid gene transcription and its components, and the in vivo characterization of PrpoB-345, the promoter of the rpoB operon in tobacco. Cytokinins are involved in the control of chloroplast biogenesis and function. To study cytokinin effects on plastid gene expression, chloroplast run-on transcription and quantitative real-time RT-PCR from senescent tobacco leaves as well as Arabidopsis and tobacco seedlings after BA treatment were performed. Analyses of time series revealed that BA-induced changes in plastid gene expression are seemingly under circadian and homeostatic control. After 2 h and 3 h of incubation with cytokinin, a stimulation of chloroplast transcription could be observed in seedlings and senescent leaves, respectively. Detached leaves of tobacco mutants with reduced endogenous cytokinin content responded even faster to BA (30 min). There is no indication of direct correlation of the expression of nuclear-encoded plastid phage-type RNA-polymerases and the BA-induced transcriptional activation of plastid genes. In summary, the responsiveness to exogenous cytokinin depends on the physiological status of chloroplasts influenced by plant species and endogenous cytokinin pool. Plastid genes of higher plants are transcribed by at least two RNA polymerases: the plastid-encoded eubacterial-type RNA polymerase (PEP) and the nucleus-encoded phage-type RNA polymerase (NEP). NEP transcribes the rpoB operon encoding three of four subunits of PEP. Transcription and transcript analyses from rpoB promoter deletion mutants indicated putative regulatory sites of control of rpoB transcription which may also interact with (cytokinin-regulated) specificity factors. Beside PrpoB-345, two additional rpoB promoters could be mapped. One of them is a putative PEP promoter which may imply autoregulatory loops of PEP expression.

Full textAlthough chloroplasts of higher plants have small genomes, their transcription machinery is very complex. Plastid genes of higher plants are transcribed by the plastid-encoded plastid RNA polymerase PEP and the nuclear-encoded plastid RNA polymerases NEP. Here, promoters of plastid genes and operons have been characterized in Arabidopsis thaliana. For the first time spectinomycin-treated, chlorophyll-deficient Arabidopsis plants lacking PEP activity have been used to discriminate between NEP and PEP promoters. Although there are plastid genes that are transcribed from a single promoter, the transcription of plastid genes and operons by multiple promoters seems to be a common feature. Comparison of plastid promoters from tobacco and Arabidopsis revealed a high diversity, which my also apply to other plants. The diversity in individual promoter usage in different plants suggests that there are species-specific solutions for attaining control over gene expression in plastids. The nuclear genome of Arabidopsis contains two candidate genes for NEP transcription activity, RpoTp and RpoTmp, both coding for phage-type RNA polymerases. In this study the usage of NEP and PEP promoters has been analysed in transgenic Arabidopsis plants with reduced and lacking RpoTp activity. Differences in promoter usage between wild type and mutant plants were most obvious early in development. Nearly all NEP promoters were active in plants with low or lacking RpoTp activity, though certain promoters showed reduced or even increased usage. The strong NEP promoter of the essential ycf1 gene was not transcribed in young seedlings without functional RpoTp. These results provide evidence for NEP being represented by two phage-type RNA polymerases RpoTp and RpoTmp that have overlapping as well as specific functions in the transcription of plastid genes.

Full textOne of the main characteristics of microorganisms, including bacteria., is their direct interaction with their environment. They thus need to perceive and quickly answer to its variations. Several steps of control exist, and recently the role of regulatory non-coding RNA, or riboregulator, was highlighted as a fast and economic mechanism of regulation. In the phytopathogen Agrobacterium fabrum (previously named Agrobacterium tumefaciens), the virulence is mainly controlled transcriptionally by the two components system VirANirG. The implication of riboregulators in the virulence of this bacterium is still unknown . The objectives of this thesis were to identify A .fabrum riboregulators and to determine their involvement in the infectious cycle of the bacteria. To this end, we identified small transcripts of A . fabrum C58 strain by combining several global analyses, and we studied the function of different candidates transcribed from the Ti plasmid (the virulence plasmid). Strains modified in the production of these candidates were constructed, their mRNA targets were predicted and validated, and phenotypic analyses -especially virulence tests were realized.Thereby, small transcript deep-sequencing allowed the identification of a thousand potential riboregulators, some of them being transcribed from regions related to the infectious cycle. We validated 4 of these transcripts as riboregulators according to their small size, their strong secondary structure and their non-translation into protein (RNAIOS I, RNA1059, RNA1083 and RNAl ll l). In particular, we showed that RNA 1111 was necessary for the virulence of A. fabrum C58, and that it seems to act through the posttranscriptional control of genes implicated in virulence functions and in Ti plasmid conjugation. A more moderated role of RNA 1083 was also observed, potentially by the modulation of the bacterial mobility and of the plasmid conjugation. Furthermore, we highlighted two riboregulators, RNA1059 and RNA1051, involved in the control of the Ti plasmid persistence, through their implication in the replication of the plasmid (RNA1059) and in a toxin-antitoxin system present on the Ti plasmid (RNA1051) .Thus, from a global analysis, we brought out the role of riboregulators in the control of several steps of the infectious cycle of A. fabrum C58, through the control of virulence factors, or through the contrai of the persistence of the main actor of the virulence, the Ti plasmid

Full textClostridium acetobutylicum is a strictly anaerobic spore forming bacteria able to produce solvents (acetone and butanol). This bacteria contents a megaplasmid (192 kpb), referred as pSOL1, that is involved in the solvent production and the spore formation. The nucleotide sequence of pSOL1 being available, we started to characterize the functions encoded by the genes carried by pSOL1, especially those playing a role in the solvent production. The sequence annotation of pSOL1 was carried out. In order to identify the genes specifically expressed or repressed during the acidogenic (productions of acetic and butyric acids), solventogenic (productions of acetone and butanol) and alcohologenic (production mainly of butanol an ethanol) metabolisms, we performed the transcription maps of the potential genes (ORFs) carried by pSOL1 in these three physiologic conditions. The analysis of the differential expression of the genes of pSOL1 had revealed several genes potentially involved in the solventogenic and alcohologenic metabolisms of C. Acetobutyilcum. This data allowed us to identify adhE2, a gene encoding for a second aldehyde/alcohol deshydrogenase involved in the production of butanol (non-coupled to acetone production). Furthermore, we also studied hupS,L,D,Q3,Q4,hypF, an operon encoding for a [NiFe] hydrogenase, potentially involved in the primary metabolism via the electron flux distribution. Moreover, our investigation allow the development of recombinant strains by metabolic engineering. We have also cloned and characterized a minimal region responsible of the pSOL1 replication. The combination of the physiologic and genetic data obtained in our study bring new insights for the description of the complex regulatory networks leading C. Acetobutylicum to differentiate and produce solvents

Full textThe autotrophic lifestyle of plants relies entirely on the integrity of chloroplasts and particularly on their biogenesis. Chloroplast gene transcription, performed by a Plastid-Encoded Polymerase (PEP) and two Nuclear-Encoded Polymerases (NEPs), is one of the key steps during the development of photosynthetic chloroplast. There are 3 classes of genes, one transcribed by PEP alone (class I), one by both PEP and NEPs (class II), and the third by NEPs alone (class III). To carry out transcription, PEP associates with plastid sigma factors including the general sigma factor SIG6. sig6 mutants have a pale cotyledon phenotype, a severe decrease in class I gene transcription and a reduction in the level of class I proteins. In our laboratory, we study the role of the two plastid WIHRLY proteins (WHY1 and WHY3) in maintaining plastid genome stability. However, little is known about any role these proteins may play in transcription or chloroplast biogenesis. It seems likely they are involved in plastid gene transcription since they are found in the Plastid Transcriptionally Active Chromosome (PTAC). Moreover, they have been implicated in chloroplast biogenesis in maize. In this study, we verified the implication of these proteins in plastid biogenesis using a genetic approach in which we crossed a sig6 mutant with a why1why3 mutant. We isolated sig6why1 and sig6why3 double mutants and a sig6why1why3 triple mutant. Using a phenotypic characterisation and quantification of some plastid proteins, we show that loss of one of the two Why genes complements the sig6 pale cotyledon phenotype and allows a more normal pattern of expression of plastid proteins that are under-expressed in the sig6 mutant. However, we also show that loss of the two Why genes does not alleviate the sig6 phenotype. Moreover, the triple mutant shows a second pale phenotype on true leaves, and the plastid protein expression pattern is abnormal compared to either sig6 or wild type plants. Those results cannot be explained by the role of WHIRLY proteins in plastid genome stability since the triple mutant shows fewer plastid genome rearrangements than the why1why3 mutant. Finally, we show that inhibition of the PEP polymerase using rifampicin elicits the same complementation of the sig6 phenotype as the loss of one of the two WHIRLY. Together, these results show the implication of WHIRLY proteins in plastid biogenesis in association with SIG6. We propose a model in which WHIRLY act as activators of PEP activity, particularly during the chloroplast biogenesis. Therefore, the absence of one of the WHIRLY would cause a weak inhibition of PEP, facilitating the set-up of a rescue mechanism by NEPs and, consequently, allowing the complementation of plastid biogenesis in the sig6 mutant. However, the absence of the two WHIRLY proteins would cause a strong inhibition of PEP, and the inability of the rescue mechanism by NEPs to compensate for this strong inhibition, resulting in a more severe phenotype in the sig6 mutant.
